I'm pretty sure almost every one of us has some sort of a collecting hobby thing going on. This thread is for discussing them, obviously.

I'm currently collecting official Pokemon merchandise (mostly figurines, plushies, TCG cards and the like) and stones (gemstones and other cool ones).
I have hundreds of Pokemon figurines, some really old and some new (and some fake, like a Beldum with two eyes). I've gathered them from garage sales, flea markets and more rarely, actually got them from shops as new. It's amazing how cheap they can be when some parents sell their kids' collections without knowing their real value :U

As I mentioned earlier, gemstones and rocks are my other huge passion. I love how different kinds of rocks have different textures and breathtakingly beautiful colours (spectrolite <3) and amazing structures (pyrite, anyone?) so I can't resist buying them P:
My collection isn't that huge yet but it's growing all the time, because at every market-thing I go to there's this same woman selling rocks and stuff :D



So, what do you collect? How did you get into collecting whatever you're collecting? Do you think your collection hobby is silly or serious?
It's your turn now C:

my aunt's kids' old house was on a neighborhood that had fossils everywhere, if you knew where to look. all they were shell fossils though :v the biggest one i have is just slightly bigger then my hand.

woopwoop archaeology
 
i also collect random crap that i have no use for. :v

and when i was little i collected transformers. i miss them. |: i totally didn't remember gave them to my friend until a few months ago i was like 'transformers are where?' and then my mom said i gave them to one of my friends. D:
 
I collect Pokemon merchandise, mainly, but I'll also steal collect any Michael Jackson merchandise. (Obviously...?) I also have an obsession for plushies, and I'm jealous of Charizard608 for being able to make plushies. (Dang, girl, how long does it take? I wanna learn...Teach me your ways! *bows*)

That's it mainly. But I used to collect alot of junk for the heck of it.
 
I...sort of do?

I started keeping tickets and/or ticket stubs from various outings. One of them is from my first concert and is AUTOGRAPHED :D

the rest are from movies. and my Les Miz ticket stub's floating around somewhere.
 
They're not technically "collections," perhaps, but I keep all of my movie tickets (except for the one that my friend put in her wallet and I never got back ahh oh well), tickets from stuff like school dances, and playbills from school plays.

I guess I collect books. A lot of the books I buy, I could probably last checking them out from the library, but I prefer to have them. Some of them I suppose I might not find in the library, so that may justify it.

Beanie Babies. =D

And Pokémon cards.

And that's probably about it.
 
Well, my porn collection is pretty big, if you know what I mean.

(Actually, I don't collect anything...)
 
oh yeah and since my aunt knows how much i love fossils one of them got me an ammonite fossil necklace c:

You do not deserve my air.




The closest thing to a collection I properly have is my papercraft -- which is a sort of a small collection given that it takes a lot of time to make even something small. But it's nice cause they're lightweight and fun .

also goats
 
I am somewhat of a numismatist, although I haven't really put a lot of effort into it lately, which is sort of sad.

...I collect manga? I guess. I have about $600-700 worth which is entirely too much.
